title: [Structural elements of molecules of GTP-binding proteins and effectors mediating coupling between them].
abstract: Data available in literature on molecular mechanisms of the functional coupling of heterotrimeric G-proteins and small GTP-binding proteins (Ras-type) to effectors are analyzed. The segments of G-protein alpha-subunits which participate in formation of the effector-binding site are discussed. The induction of interaction between activated alpha-subunit and effector, following change of alpha-subunit nucleotide-binding site conformation as a result of GDP/GTP exchange is shown. The analysis of effector molecular determinants responsible for coupling to G-proteins are analyzed. The determinants are preferentially of the polycationic nature.
